  • So… Things Are Looking Good

    So… Things Are Looking Good
    Oct 7 2026
    Arsenal are back in Premier League action against Leeds United — and despite the 3-0 defeat to Brighton, there are plenty of reasons to believe things are looking GOOD for Mikel Arteta’s side. In today’s video, we take a closer look at Arsenal’s defence, the latest William Saliba injury update, Ben White’s importance, and the big selection decisions ahead of Arsenal vs Leeds. One of the biggest questions is: what defence should Arsenal start against Leeds? For me, Ben White has become one of the most underappreciated players in this Arsenal team. The defeat to Brighton was the first game this season in which White wasn’t available, and Arsenal suffered their heaviest loss in more than three years. That doesn’t mean one player was responsible — but Ben White’s influence should not be ignored. In the six games White has played this season, Arsenal have conceded just ONE goal. He has also started in some of Arsenal’s biggest results, including wins against Sunderland, Chelsea and Aston Villa, the Champions League victory away at Napoli, and the Community Shield win against Manchester City. His impact isn’t just defensive either. White gives Arsenal balance, control and an attacking relationship down the right-hand side that can be incredibly important to how Arteta wants his team to play. We also discuss the latest William Saliba injury news. There were initial fears Saliba could potentially be sidelined until 2027, but the latest reports suggest Arsenal could receive a major boost, with the French centre-back potentially returning as early as November or December. Could Arsenal’s defensive injury situation actually be improving quicker than expected? There are also some huge selection debates ahead of Leeds: ⚽ Ben White or Jurrien Timber at right-back? ⚽ Riccardo Calafiori or Piero Hincapié at left-back? ⚽ What is Arsenal’s strongest back four when everyone is fit? ⚽ How important is William Saliba to Arsenal’s title challenge? The Brighton defeat has naturally created some concern, but I think it’s important to keep some perspective. Arsenal’s defensive record this season has largely been excellent, and one heavy defeat shouldn’t suddenly erase everything that came before it. Leeds could be the perfect game for Arsenal to respond, restore some defensive control and quieten the noise surrounding the team. The big question now is whether Brighton was simply an outlier — or whether there are defensive issues Arteta needs to fix. Let me know below: 🔥 What back four are YOU starting against Leeds? 👀 White or Timber at right-back? 🤔 Calafiori or Hincapié at left-back? ❤️ How important is Ben White to this Arsenal side? 💪 How big would an early Saliba return be?

  • Wow… This Changes Everything!

    Wow… This Changes Everything!
    Oct 6 2026
    Arsenal are FINALLY back in Premier League action as the international break comes to an end — but what Arsenal side will we see against Leeds United? After heading into the break following a disappointing 3-0 defeat to Brighton, there has naturally been some concern around Mikel Arteta’s side. But before that result, Arsenal had put together a brilliant run of form, beating Sunderland, Chelsea, Aston Villa and Coventry, as well as securing a huge Champions League win away against Napoli. So is the panic around Arsenal justified, or has one bad result changed the mood too much? In today’s video, we look ahead to Arsenal vs Leeds and discuss the biggest questions facing the Gunners as the Premier League title race resumes. ⚽ What THREE-MAN ATTACK should Arsenal start against Leeds? My choice is Bukayo Saka, Eberechi Eze and Viktor Gyökeres. Gyökeres is set for another big opportunity to prove himself, and after continuing to score for Sweden during the international break, there is plenty of excitement around what he can do when Arsenal return. We also discuss whether Leeds is already a MUST-WIN game for Arsenal. If you want to win the Premier League, almost every game starts to feel like a must-win — and this is exactly the type of fixture Arsenal will expect to take three points from. Arsenal’s next six league games could be absolutely crucial: Leeds United Nottingham Forest Everton Liverpool Hull Newcastle United Which of those games worries you the most? Liverpool will be the obvious answer for many Arsenal fans, but I also explain why I think Newcastle could be one of the most important games in this run. There is also some perspective needed. At a similar stage last season Arsenal had won three, drawn one and lost one — and still went on to win the Premier League. So despite the Brighton defeat, there is still a long way to go. We also discuss the latest Noni Madueke transfer rumours, with Juventus and Atletico Madrid reportedly showing interest in the Arsenal winger. Could Arsenal seriously consider allowing Madueke to leave, and what would it mean for Arteta’s attacking options? Let me know in the comments: 🔥 What front three are YOU starting against Leeds? 🏆 Is Leeds already a must-win game? 😬 Which of Arsenal’s next six games worries you most? 👀 Would you consider selling Noni Madueke?

  • Arsenal New Plan EXPOSED

    Arsenal New Plan EXPOSED
    Oct 5 2026
    🚨 GYÖKERES OR MERINO?! THE ARSENAL DEBATE CONTINUES… Viktor Gyökeres is absolutely flying for Sweden, becoming the first player to score in six consecutive UEFA Nations League matches after finding the net in three straight games during this international break. With Kai Havertz currently injured, is this finally the moment Arsenal unleash the striker they bought to score goals? Mikel Merino has proven he can deliver goals when Arsenal need him, but for me, Gyökeres has to be given his opportunity. Some Arsenal fans are already questioning him, but with confidence high and goals flowing for Sweden, he couldn't be arriving back at Arsenal in a much better place. We also discuss Bukayo Saka, who has been amongst the goals for England again. Despite everything he's achieved, the Arsenal star still seems to find himself questioned — but could we be about to see another huge season from Saka? PLUS, Max Dowman's controversial red card for England U19s. The 16-year-old provided an assist before being dismissed against the USA, with reports suggesting many watching felt the challenge was worthy of a yellow rather than a red. Is the scrutiny around one of England's brightest young talents already becoming excessive? And finally, the Manchester City financial charges saga continues. City have officially lodged an appeal against the independent commission's guilty findings, while their punishment will be determined separately. Could a potential points deduction affect this Premier League season, or will the appeal process push everything further down the road? Right now, the timing and eventual sanction remain unresolved. 👇 LET ME KNOW: Gyökeres or Merino up front? How many goals could Gyökeres score for Arsenal this season? And what punishment do you expect Manchester City to receive? Subscribe to The Gooner Factory for the latest Arsenal news, injury updates, transfer news, match reaction and Premier League discussion.
